A quick search shows that the Apple earnings were world-wide.

EDITED: I may have been missing the point. Was the point just in reference to the second chart, showing that in one mid-North American country, more Apple than Android smartphones are now sold, which only goes to show that Apple does unusually well in said nation of spendthrifts.
